Countries across the world have responded to North Korea’s fifth nuclear test, which Pyongyang confirmed earlier on Friday. Russia says the defiant nation must stop further tests and join the global nuclear non-proliferation regime.
Moscow accused Pyongyang of threatening the security of the Korean Peninsula and the entire region through its policies.
“We insist that North Korea stop its dangerous adventurism, abide by all resolutions of the UN Security Council, cease its nuclear missile programs and re-join the Nuclear Proliferation Treaty,” the Russian Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
“We are very concerned about the test. UN Security Council resolutions must be observed,” Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said.
Russia’s UN envoy Vitaly Churkin called for the Security Council to issue a unanimous condemnation of the test, but stopped short of advocating sanctions.
China’s official news agency, Xinhua, said that all international parties should exercise restraint, stressing that no country will benefit from chaos or war on the Korean peninsula.
